laptopless

since i don't bring my laptop into hall anymore, i've decided to use my hall's comp room. the msn is a damn freaking old version, and typing on this keyboard is really noisy, so it's a bit embarrassing if i press too hard, but no matter how lightly i try to press it's just damn noisy =p

i'm not here to waste time. i'm supposed to be doing chemistry. so i guess i better go do chemistry hahaha

catch up week

i haven't blogged for ages, mainly because i didn't have the mood to. that and i've been coming back to hall with no laptop, so as to aid my studying process hahaha it's definitely been working much harder than last semester at this point of time. from last semester i've really learnt the importance of quizzes. so this time, i'm really making a marked effort this time to improve my gpa. no choice already. gpa is only 3.38 now. like shit. and i already calculated, even if i got A for every module i'm taking this sem, my gpa will only be 3.75. still like shit. it's gg to be damn hard for me to get 2nd upper already. but still going to try to push for it. otherwise my honours will just be a useless piece of crap.

i actually added this paragraph after i finished typing. since it's a really long post, here's a summary so you can read what you want to hahaha

the weather --> 3 accidents --> my samsung phone --> transformers 2 --> guitar heroes --> green toenail --> inspiring story. just to help you along =)

as you probably know, it's been raining like crazy for the past 2 days. welcome relief from the heat i must say. but i don't think we have much right to complain about the heat, since the temperature here is still below 35 degC. the people in auzzieland were burning their asses off in 47 degC heat. don't know how the hell they survive man. anyway as i was driving along the roads today in the rain, i encountered 3 accidents.

accident 1:
location: split road on lornie road flyover to braddell road flyover
vehicle: dark blue mercedes benz
my POV: the bugger was probably talking on the phone or dozing off. because he knocked down all the warning poles on the chevron and completely crushed the metal girders. i guess the guy wasn't alright, because there was an ambulance there when i went past him. i still maintain my stand that mercedes drivers are bad drivers hahaha

accident 2:
location: upper thomson road outside thompson plaza
vehicle: old motorcycle
my POV: i was driving in the middle lane when suddenly everyone braked quite hard. i managed to cut out into the right lane and keep going. as i drove past i saw a guy trying to crawl up from the floor with his motorbike lying on the ground. i don't know if he got knocked by the lorry right behind him, but he really was hardly moving.

accident 3:
location: upper bukit timah flyover
vehicle: white hyundai avante
my POV: it wasn't raining already, but this guy had crashed into the wall and spun around, with his front completely smashed in. both guys were alright as one of them was waving traffic to keep left, and the other one was probably calling his insurance agent and a tow truck at the same time. that was probably just very very bad driving.

so moral of the story my friends, is to always slow down and drive slowly when it's raining so damn heavily!!! because sometimes you really just cannot see what's in front of you and end up driving into the road divider, or your car might just skid and something really bad will happen. oh and please switch on your headlights. there are some morons out there who don't even on their low beams when it's raining so freaking heavily. let me be very frank and say... YOU GUYS ARE BLOODY IDIOTS!!! *sigh* it's not just about you being able to see in front of you. it's about other people being able to see you in their rain soaked wing mirrors through their wet windows. and it's not as if you'll use more petrol when you on your lights. don't think you're so cool just because you can drive in the rain without your headlights on. it doesn't matter if you've got a doctorate or have a medical degree. it just shows that you're a moron.

now that i've done my public advisory notice, let's talk about samsung again hahaha yes... my phone gave me problems again =p if you've been reading my blog regularly, you would've probably remembered me cursing and swearing at samsung because the new phone i got from them was giving me so much problems. this time, the screen completely died on me. so i couldn't see ANYTHING! when i wanted to call someone i had to type in the number really carefully and press dial hahaha i think many tried to call me, so i didn't know who it was, but based on the ringtone i set i knew it was someone from t19 =p so i had to travel to ps and that same old samsung service centre again to repair it. luckily it's still under warranty, so i didn't have to pay for anything, except for parking. the only good thing is that it was done in a day, so i could get it back quite quickly. but i'm quite certain, that when my current plan allows me to get another phone at a discounted price, i'm going to get a nokia candybar music phone hahaha NO MOVING PARTS!!! and i realise i listen to music on my phone more than i take pictures, so a music phone would be better for me. viva la nokia! =p

after watching the trailer for the new transformers movie, i must say i CAN'T WAIT TO WATCH IT!!! my god it looks so damn juicy!!! looks much darker than the 1st one though, but who cares!!! same case, and soooo many more robots!! any hot blooded male will want to watch that show man!! so kewllll!!!!

last friday i had a sudden craving for guitar heroes. my hands really got damn itchy and i kept imagining playing the songs hahaha being in hall, i had no choice. so i went home and quickly started playing, and borrowed josh's world tour too. then my dad got me the guitar-game set as an early birthday present. woohoo!!! so now if got class party josh only has to bring the drums and mic over hahaha less work for him. but my earlier guitar is starting to show signs of going numb. sian.

oh yes... my dear toenail. in short, it turned green and freaked my mum out hahaha but it actually was just dried blood that changed colour due to pigmentation. i hope the doctor was right =p and i hope it comes off soon. i really wanted to go sentosa during this one week break, but sadly i'm afraid sand will get underneath it and it'll really get infected, or even worse it might just fly off. i don't wanna imagine that happening, because it's going to hurt like hell. not like i know how painful hell is, but... yeah you get the point.

now for an inspiring story to end off this blog post. any of you watched this year's nba slamdunk contest? this man... 1.75m tall nate robinson, jumped over a man 2.1m tall to dunk the ball. now think about the adidas slogan... "impossible is nothing". that is damn inspiring man. no matter how difficult an obstacle might look, just think of a way to work around it, or in this case, jump over it =)

just came back from a run. 1st time i've run so early in ntu hahaha ran the bus B route, which is abt 3.5km the last time i measured. basically i chased after a couple that overtook me while i was stretching. i think i run faster when i've got an objective. so i think this is the fastest i've ever run this distance hahaha and i think running with music makes me run slower too =p spend too much time enjoying the music until cannot focus on running properly hahaha oh well... all this is for the hong bao from the government. only thing i'm really worried about now is the situps, because they use this new machine where your elbows really have to touch your knees, otherwise it won't count. gone are those cheating days in secondary school and jc where ur elbows never EVER go anywhere near your knees hahaha damn it! stupid machines... then the pti can really stare at you doing your situps. so stress... wonder if i still can jump properly or not. so long never jump already... shuttle run should be ok la. i just want the money!!! hahaha

going for my first block supper later. skipped the last 2 because i simply had other plans hahaha but tonight i made myself free for it. just go for it once la. cannot be so outsider here =p not that i intend to stay in hall (which right now is virtually impossible), but just have some fun in hall la. otherwise stay here for what right hahaha

hope wendy's ankle gets better soon... looks damn scary. i hope i never sprain my ankle. i like my ankles too much hahaha
